In January, 2014, La Paz launched its first King Long bus route, which was greatly welcomed by local citizens. So far, with the operation of the fourth bus route in the city, all city buses for public transportation, reaching over 100 units in number, are now branded with King Long. The high safety standards, a lot more travel comforts and high efficiency brought by King Long bus fleet have already won the heart of many local citizens, including Luis, the mayor of La Paz.

In the face of a number of challenges, such as high altitude and unsatisfactory road conditions, King Long’s technical & engineering team has done a lot of work, making buses readily adjustable to the local special operation conditions. In addition, each King Long bus is painted with the local totem, a leopard head with a snake body. “Every detail has been given the highest possible attention by King Long, which is way beyond what we have expected,” says a bus engineer from Bolivia. So far, King Long’s first batch of 61 units buses have been working smoothly for 300,000 kilometers in the country.
Not only in Bolivia, King Long public transportation solutions, which are specially tailored for its customers, have also been well received in Thailand. So far, the bus maker has a total number of 2,000 units buses in operation in the country. As a popular tourist destination, Thailand has always set stringent standards for bus import. To work well and gain popularity in the market, buses must be able to overcome a host of challenges, including the year-long scorching heat and common slopes. In addition, buses must have competitive strengths in power and consistency in performances.
